A block of mass 200g is oscillating on the end of a horizontal spring of spring constant 100 N/m and natural length 12 cm. When

the spring is stretched to a length of 14 cm, what is the acceleration of the block? [F=ma=kx]

In order to determine the acceleration of the block, use the following formula:

F=ma

Moreover, remind that for an object attached to a spring the magnitude of the force acting over a mass is given by:

F=kx

Then, you have:

ma=kx

by solving for a, you obtain:

a=\frac{kx}{m}

In this case, you have:

k: spring constant = 100N/m

m: mass of the block = 200g = 0.2kg

x: distance related to the equilibrium position = 14cm - 12cm = 2cm = 0.02m

Replace the previous values of the parameters into the expression for a:

a=\frac{(\frac{100N}{m})(0.02m)}{0.2\operatorname{kg}}=10\frac{m}{s^2}

Hence, the acceleration of the block is 10 m/s^2

Why does a force perpendicular to an objects velocity change the direction of the velocity but not its magnitude
inna [77]

Answer:

According to your question although I think an object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed. Nevertheless, it is accelerating due to its change in direction. The direction of the acceleration is inwards,therefore a force perpendicular to an objects velocity change the direction of the velocity but not its magnitude.
